First off, thanks for thinking this out with me. I have read your posts 3-5 times each trying to envision every obstacle I'm going to come up against. Maybe I'm over-thinking it. Usually if I don't think about it enough, it ends up as a disaster.
Second, I need to understand boat building terminology better. I get keel, transom, skin. Are "stations" just like "ribs"? And what would you call the front plane of the cap that is the same shape as the rear of the cab?
So this one line from your post is what worries me. I made about 4 templates for the shape of cardboard/coroplast that I fitted to the front of my truck as a airdam block over the tow hooks.
I think I'm going to need a lot of cardboard.
